Family Counselling Centres

Family Counselling Centres Psychological services (Counselling & Assessments) for children, adolescents, adults, and families.

Family Counselling Centres offers an unconditional, respectful, gentle, and safe space to explore experiences and facilitate connections to inner strengths and creativity for healing. Our clinicians are trained specifically in the treatment of children, adolescents, and families. We are unique in that our clinicians put a strong emphasis on connections within the family systems, both past and pres

ent, not only the individual. We recognize that traditional office based therapy is not for everyone, and offer many alternative methods of treatment. More specifically, our clinicians specialize in Animal-Assisted Therapy {canine in office}, Play Therapy {with fully equipped play-spaces to engage your child in the process, Sandplay Therapy, EMDR {trauma-based therapy}, and Equine-Assisted Therapy {horse... and a multitude of other farm friends} facilitated by Hooves of Hope Ranch east of Millet, AB. Our clinicians are able to provide both direct billing to many third party insurers as well as a sliding scale for those without extended health coverage. Select offices also work alongside community partnerships to provide subsidized counselling programs for low income households, as well as contracts with *Employee Assistance Programs.

Over the weekend, some of our clinical team had the pleasure of taking part in a drum and mallet workshop at our Beaumont office.

Led by Starr from .ca, the workshop explored the healing properties of the drum, with Starr sharing some of her lived experience as an indigenous person.

We are so grateful for this opportunity!

And it wouldn’t be an FCC event without a cameo from one of our therapy animals….🐍

Our Story

Family Counselling Centres offers therapeutic space that provides a safe, warm, and trusting environment. We are unique in that clinicians put a strong emphasis on connections within the family systems, both past and present, rather than just the individual. The therapists are trained specifically in the treatment of children, adolescents, and families. We also recognize that traditional office based therapy is not for everyone, so we offer alternative methods of treatment-- some which are unique to Family Counseling Centres. More specifically, our clinicians specialize in animal assisted therapy, sand play therapy, play therapy, EMDR (trauma-based therapy), and equine (horse) assisted therapy. We offer an unconditional, respectful, gentle, and safe space to explore experiences and facilitate connections to inner strengths and creativity for healing. We are able to provide both direct billing to many EAP's as well as a sliding scale for those without insurance coverage
